== Description ==

URL Stats from Facebook uses the FQL to query the stats for any URL (including facebook pages). These can then be individually displayed via shortcodes on your posts/pages or embedding in your Wordpress template files.

**Features:**

* Simple interface design, showing the stats for the URL
* Each stat type is wrapped in `<span>` tags with appropriate class name, for easy CSS styling eg. `<span class="usf-likes">`
* Shortcodes for embedding in posts and pages
* Compatible with all browsers
* No coding required

**Shortcode Examples:**
`[usf_likes]`
`[usf_shares]`
`[usf_comments]`
